OPSEC - Navy Operations Security
Always keep Navy Operations Security in mind. In the Navy, it's essential to remember that "loose lips sink ships." OPSEC is everyone's responsibility.
DON'T post critical information including future destinations or ports of call; future operations, exercises or missions; deployment or homecoming dates.
DO be smart, use your head, always think OPSEC when using texts, email, phone, and social media, and watch this video: "Importance of Navy OPSEC."

Information
As our recruits get furthur into bootcamp I thought that maybe some of the Moms in Division 818 PIR 9/2 would like to get more specific information. I'm brand new at this but thought I'd try and maybe some more knowledgable Mom's will help us.

Aww, Lydia, I am so very sorry for all you and B are going through--I'll be praying you find someone who will help get it fixed. I had hoped the message I sent you would have helped..........but I will also remind you that you will need to forgive that young man and his mother!!! If you stay angry and become bitter it won't be hurting them, only you---and there is SO much more you have to deal with praying for B and D..............
Love you sisters, especially to Lydia!!!!

Happy Momday!!!! Will be getting some organization done cause tomorrow the floor in the other bedroom will be under repair. The goal is to have it done before J is here so he has a bedroom to stay in while at home---then W will also move into the bedroom and the camper will be winterized, baited for rats/mice and power and water turned off to it. That will save power. Then we start work on the addition on the back and the porch on the first. The addition will have my new kitchen in it with a new pantry/laundry room, a bathroom for the master bedroom and a "Florida room" for Joe's parents. Lots to do.......hopefully most of it will be completed before W leaves for the Army--get as much work out of him as possible.
Got to milk the goatie-girls.............
Have a great day!!!
